Rust armourer faces 18 months in jail after being found guilty of involuntary manslaughter

The armourer on the Rust set where cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was shot and killed have been found guilty of involuntary manslaughter.

Hannah Gutierrez-Reed loaded a gun for Alec Baldwin on the set, which discharged while he was holding it and shot the mother-of-one.

She was found guilty on Wednesday after a two-week trial in New Mexico, over two years after the tragedy in October 2021.

Guttierez-Reed was jailed to await sentencing, which could be up to 18 months in prison and a $5,000 (£3,900) fine.
